Nice shine on that car body Pat. You know, I get just as much a kick out of what's in the background of these pics as I do the actual ongoing build itself. Adds a whole new dimension to the build.

Assembled the car. I hadn't noticed the big notch in the rear of the side pipes. I think that rather than removing them I'll fill the notch with epoxy and then touch up the paint.

Working on the windshield so graciously supplied by mod3lLover.

I seem only have one of everything. The Plaskit clearance lights will be used for tailights.

Scratching up the second parking light. I had painted them yellow in the initial build but white is more appropriate for the period.

Working on making a hood latch handle.Please forgive the blur, these are rather small pieces.

Installed the parking, tail lights and hood latch handles. After the third set of windwings, I gave up and cutoff the windwing brackets and declared them optional. I had only three of the jack bumpers, one of which was broken so I declared them unnecessary as well. So it is as "fixed" as it is going to get.
